As very approximate timelines, it will take about 3 months by air/ or about 5 months by boat from the time you place your order for your range to arrive at your house. *Note: Add 4 weeks if lead time includes August, as the factory is on Holiday during that time.To obtain a more accurate timeline for the specific range you’re interested in, please give us a call at: 1-800-408-2433.

Fontenay model

A. For the Fontenay model, choose an overhead canopy with the following optimum specifications: 66″ wide (72″ for Fontenay island applications) x 24-27″deep.

B. Blowers should be rated at 900-1300 cfm, with 10″ round ducting, or equivalent. Size should be measured by the style and quantity of cooking, i.e. Asian stir-fry (vaporized grease) requires higher performance blowers than French reduction (steam). C. Hood can be mounted to wall or ceiling 30″-36″ (from hood base) off cooktop. Check with your hood company for specific requirements.
